  • Do you want to know how Dry Needling can help in breaking the pain cycle you are confronted with?

Dry Needling is a well researched and scientifically proven procedure used to specifically target trigger points in a muscle often caused by trauma, stress, repetitive work, immobilisation, fatigue and various other factors. Trigger points are hyperirritable areas in the muscle tissue and can lead to poor muscle function, and further tissue damage associated with increased pain.
Dry Needling involves the insertion of a thin sterile acupuncture like needle at these trigger points. The needles are removed once the trigger point is inactivated or reset. Subsequently, therapy should involve determining the cause of the trigger points and would be followed by exercises (including stretching) or ergonomic adjustments with the purpose to re-establish a painless, full range of motion, and avoid recurrences.
